Instructions
 
  • Whisk the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl.
  • Add the brown rice flour, butterfly pea powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Combine until smooth.
  • Heat a non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-low heat. Once the surface is warm, use a ¼ measuring cup to pour the batter onto the pan.
  • Cook the pancakes for 3 minutes until it begins to bubble. Flip and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
Notes
Expert Tips:
  • If the pancake batter seems too thick and heavy, add more almond milk a little at a time until it reaches the proper consistency. If the batter is too thin and runny, sprinkle more flour to thicken the mixture. Keep adding the ingredients slowly until the batter is smooth and pourable.
  • When making pancakes with brown rice flour, know that they tend to brown more quickly than those made with all-purpose flour, so maintain a lower temperature to avoid burning. 
  • This blue pancakes recipe produces 5-6 large pancakes. Consider doubling or tripling the recipe if feeding a crowd because they will go quickly! I like meal-prepping a few batches to save for later.
